Features: These thematic collage works were created by the author in the early 1980s. They align with the mainstream of artistic creation at that time—realism—by using relatively specific imagery and narrative-driven scenes to express certain themes, such as the bustling city, the beauty of the countryside, the love between lovers, and so on. These works retain the imprint of the era's artistic creation. This type of work may be more suitable for expression through fabric collage. Conversely, fabric collage art is more suited to depicting abstract or completely abstract forms. The limitation of fabric collage lies in its difficulty in rendering fine details and expressing lines, while its strength lies in its rich and saturated color expression. The texture of the fabric itself has a certain interesting decorative quality. Therefore, Huiming's fabric collage art moving from figurative to abstract is a natural progression in line with artistic principles. Previously, some media introductions referred to it as "Huiming's fabric collage paintings," but it is considered more accurate to call it "fabric collage art." In this way, during the creative process, the author is not constrained by the "scene" of specific imagery, allowing for fuller expression of the strengths of the fabric collage form. This enables the display of the art's color, texture, and decorative charm, fully conveying the author's interests and subjective feelings.
